Use Cases

User controlled sampling

There needs to be a simple API for someone who wants to create simple user action which starts and stops self-sampling and presents user with sampled results.

The correct way to achieve this is to call Sampler.createManualSampler, followed by Sampler.start() and Sampler.stop().

Sampling of the slow operation

Second major use-case of the Sampling API is sampling of the slow operation.

The correct way to achieve this is to call Sampler.createSampler(), followed by Sampler.start() and Sampler.stopAndWriteTo(DataOutputStream dos).
